A "Circuit Preacher" At The Wild West

[daranac2]

God bless the people who are brave enouph to stand in front of a crowd of people and preach the gospel.

this scrpture fighting back and forth from 6gording6 and filo is a prime example of the bibles countless contradictions over and over again ............. NICE

When someone dies, do they have to wait for Judgement Day?

[joeb0]

depends how he lived his life. There is purgatory which is a purification process before going to heaven. Some people it's a day, some an hour, some a year or two. Those in Purgatory are saints because they're going to heaven.

This clearly demonstrates he monumental arrogance of many christians. The shame based doctrine and the delusional belief in a evil, contradictory, sacred text of dubious origin. If I had been there I would have gotten out of line and started through the long list of immorality committed by the church, and presented in the bible as moral, I would have opined on secular values at the top of my lungs until he left.

It's a sickness, an addiction you could say. Fanatics and zealots like this man are what give Christians a bad name. I'd bet anything that this guy would hate for a gay rights activist to show up to his church and preach acceptance and understanding while the congregation was standing in line.

[quintessential37]

I laughed all day at the thought of going to church Sunday morning, standing in the parking lot and 'preaching' to the congregation as they entered about tolerance, peace, and my secular values. I wouldn't actually do it, but it is a funny idea.

Mockers, scoffers, that is the way the world is. They enjoy their sins.

[Idiopathogen]

6gording6, you're also forgetting repentance.

[6gording6]

You take long to preach the GOOD NEWS.Speak the love of God his abundant mercy.We are saved by his love and not by works.Let them walk away feeling safe that God will save them.Forget the law for it is the Old covenant and bring Love which is the New Covenant for love is the fulfillment of the Law.

[filoIII]

Jesus said if you love me keep my commandments. obviously it still applies. He's not only a God of love, but of anger, wrath, vengeance and fury. perverted modern day gospel that preaches only the love of God

[6gording6]

Lol love is the fulfillment of the law.The wrath and vengeance are upon those who do not trust in him.Truly God is love.If you love him you will trust in him.Many have perverted his words when they speak on their own behalf and understanding.I speak in his accord.His commands love God and love your neighbor as yourself,so yea God is love.

[filoIII]

Jas 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all. the Law cant save but only condemn

[6gording6]

exactly.Love is the fulfillment of the law.If you love you keep all the laws.

[filoIII]

the Law still applies as a schoolmaster to point out our sin. Jesus used the Law numerous times. so for you to say there's no need to preach the Commandments, i dont know what book you're reading

[6gording6]

Maybe you should read the bible.The disciples didnt go through the whole laws when they preached.Jesus didnt even go through the whole laws when he preached.Jesus just said believe in me and you will be saved.He was quick to the point,those who believed and were interested came to him.I never said not to preach the commandments.They are two love God and love your neighbor as yourself.Preach it to the world.Because Jesus is lIfe.Under his grace.

[filoIII]

oohhhh, so that's why Jesus pointed out the adultery in the woman at the well. or how bout the rich young ruler who loved his money more than God?

[Idiopathogen]

You're giving dispensational teaching a bad name. The water's a lot cleaner upstream. Get ahold of some Darby, Kelly, etc and read it yourself. In 1 John, God is light before God is love, although God is love is mentioned more. It must start with light in order for someone to know how much they are loved by God, despite what we all are. The New Covenant is for the Jews.

[Ecothearcy]

The lake of fire is a purification and cleansing of the moral soul. There is no such thing as eternal physical torture by a loving Father, thats a blasphemy from ancient Egypt. That is why the Jews (Jesus) did not , do not, never did, believe in the pagan concept of hell, which is an english word with no equivalent meaning in the original Bible languages.
